I love to realize there’s still people willing to say “if this was asked first, I’d have disagreed, but after hearing your story I think you’re right” this video shows that respectful communication, humility and LISTENING are the key for progress.

[ninab]

So cool to see that there actually was a middle ground for this episode—it sounds like the true common enemy is commercial meat and fish industries

[putt]

Probably one of the only Middle Ground episode that the contestants are actually respectful of others views and doesn’t try to flex their knowledge.

[brysonhodges]

This is probably the best episode of Middle Ground I’ve ever seen. Every single participant was thoughtful, open-minded, and educated.

Respect to Carly for admitting she doesn’t know certain things as opposed to bullshitting through the conversation 👍🏻

[doodle]

But honestly I am a vegan and I genuinely don't think it's the hunters or individuals that are the problem it's the meat industry and the thinking that animals are only food to be consumed.
I have nothing against people that have to hunt to survive or the Natives that have sustainabily done it. Also it's not my place to tell them to do anything. Someone who belongs to the community better understands them and can emphasize with them..
Which is why we need representation from indigenous black, Muslim vegans.

One of the few Middle Grounds where I didn’t hate anyone in particular.

[teck]

This was great. No drama no fighting, just thoughtful individuals talking about their differing views. Beautiful

[bookmilla]

As someone who doesn’t eat meat, I 100% think that hunting is better than the meat industry.

[sophiar]

this is probably my favorite group to ever come on middle ground because they were all so open and attentive the whole time. they weren't shouting over each other and they were willing to hear everyone through. carly admitting she didn't know a solution is such a nice thing to see because that is a VERY hard thing to do. all around a really nice group of people

[Sana-mbig]

That indigenous Alaskan girl crying mid way for their traditional lands getting snatched and fined by huge food corporations for more poultry and agricultural production broke me

[shannonsilva]

I love how they actually found the "middle ground" relating and understanding each other unique situations, where as in other episodes both parties persistently oppose each other and refuse to listen believing that there ideals are the only valid ones

[peachgirl_adachi]

I'm glad that there was an indigenous hunter because indigenous people have an entirely different point of view on hunting and veganism since it greatly influences their culture.

[jelanidacostabest]

I wish Erin came out of nowhere just to say “That’s not vegan” at least once

[Artofcarissa]

I’m glad they had a hunter who’s indigenous to show that not every hunter is from a conservative state or city

[Wat]

This was very positive, I’m glad that they were open with each other and weren’t throwing malice or putting words into each other’s mouths, very mature of them all ☺️ less suffering is the goal here.

[gibranalfatah_]

actually, the production team deserve a big shout-out for putting "hunters" instead of "meat-eaters" or "meat-industry people"

[tracy_cakkes]

It broke my heart to see the Alaskan girl crying about their lands being taken away

[leahxnorton]

You guys should do “Do all children of divorce think the same” for kids with divorced parents!! A good spectrum of middle ground!”

[sabrinathehairwitch]

I’ve been vegan for 10 years and I was just blown away by the thoughtful, open minded, and self aware conversation that took place. It was really amazing to have the indigenous perspective, as well as Carly’s sort of “all American” perspective. I really understood and appreciated every point they made and applaud them for participating
